Best xmas movies with a company party gone wrong: DIE HARD!

Tue. 12/20/11 6:27pm CJ:

Gremlins was on the other night.. Gizmo!

Tue. 12/20/11 6:29pm Bobo:

Gremlins takes place on Xmas Eve. Cops see an old lady tossed out her attic window (by the Gremlins) and one cries "But it's Xmas Eve!"

Tue. 12/20/11 6:31pm Gotham FX:

I was invited to the office X-mas party as well, They wanted to charge us $40/person. Bad form. Pass.

Oh, and two great X-mas movies you probably missed: 'Rare Exports' and 'Santa's Slay'...!

Tue. 12/20/11 6:31pm Rand:

That's it! Out you two pixies go... through the door, or out the window!

We had a Christmas party several years ago, and then the economy went south and we haven't had one since. It was a lot of fun cuz we set up some gear and had a company jam session in one of the studios. Boss provided beer and food, stayed for about 15 minutes and then left us to get drunk and make noise.

Tue. 12/20/11 6:34pm Mike East:

we used to get xmas bonuses, too. Those were the days...now we just get cookies.

Trading places for a Christmas movie

Tue. 12/20/11 6:37pm Dave In Philly:

Another great theme!
My best ever Xmas Party happened when I was 16. Ever since then I realized I was a slave.Because the attitude was obvious.
But the host back then was (and still is) an egalitarian Veterinarian. After school, we drove around the countryside castrating horses, preg-checking dairy cows, pulling calves and generally getting covered with shit. It was great. Made me useful in the Peace Corps later.
Anyway, he and his wonderful wife made it a point of making me, my lovely older neighbor Meridith and a succession of skinny interns from VA Tech feel like important family members, to the point of having us to a very lavish Christmas Party every year.
They gave us a party, willingly and with love. Nowadays, it seems like fun is sucked right out of this event because the hosts are wanting my admiration for not firing me!

"Rare Exports" looks hilarious. Saw the trailer at Nitehawk Cinema. A monster Santa Claus eating children with a gang of killer elves.

Tue. 12/20/11 6:40pm Harvey:

Luddite!

Tue. 12/20/11 6:43pm CFO:

Office parties. New profit center. As Mr Burns says, "EXXXXCELLLLENTTTT"

Tue. 12/20/11 6:44pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Let's all have a swig of virtual egg nog.

Tue. 12/20/11 6:46pm ec:

Rare Exports is amazing. Plus the first 2 Rare Export mini-movies are up on the YouTube. Worth checking out.

Tue. 12/20/11 6:46pm Scuttle:

I've been working service jobs for Christmas parties the past month- catering, valet. Get to eat fancy untouched food, see some ice statues, not bad.

Tue. 12/20/11 6:46pm Rand:

When the clip started I thought it was from Burroughs' A Junkie Christmas.

Tue. 12/20/11 6:55pm depressed Persian cab driver:

I still have nightmares about the Santa interpretation from Futurama. Not a movie, sorry, but Merry Christmas, Cris T.!
Nobody (including Ken) is more dead-on for current events in my humble opinion.
